Rolling in the Deep
Monique Urban Love Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Reaching a fever pitch and it's bringing me out the dark.
Finally, I can see you crystal clear,
Go ahead and sell me out and I'll lay your ship bare,
See how I'll leave with every piece of you,
Don't underestimate the things that I will do.
There's a fire starting in my heart,
The scars of your love remind me of us,
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all.
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless,
I can't help feeling,
We could have had it all,
(Your gonna wish you, never had met me)
Rolling in the deep,
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside your hand,
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
And you played it to the beat.
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
Baby, I have no story to be told,
But I've heard one on you and I'm gonna make your head burn,
Think of me in the depths of your despair,
Making a home down there as mine sure won't be shared,
The scars of your love remind me of us,
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all.
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless,
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
I can't help feeling,
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
We could have had it all,
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep.
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside your hand,
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
And you played it to the beat.
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
Could have had it all,
Rolling in the deep,
You had my heart inside of your hands,
But you played it with a beating.
Throw your soul through every open door,
Count your blessings to find what you look for.
Turn my sorrow into treasured gold,
You'll pay me back in kind and reap just what you've sown.
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
We could have had it all,
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
We could have had it all.
(You're gonna wish you never had met me),
It all, it all, it all.
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
We could have had it all,
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep.
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hand,
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
And you played it to the beat.
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
Could have had it all,
(You're gonna wish you never had met me)
Rolling in the deep.
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
You had my heart inside of your hands,
(You're gonna wish you never had met me
But you played it,
You played it,
You played it,
You played it to the beat.
The song "Rolling in the Deep" by Monique Urban Love follows a theme of heartbreak, anger, and revenge. The opening lines of the song talk about a "fire starting in my heart" and "reaching a fever pitch," which symbolizes the intensity of the pain caused by heartbreak. The singer feels betrayed and let down by the person who sold her out, and she vows to leave with every piece of him/her. The lyrics convey a strong message of power dynamics between two people in a relationship, with one having the upper hand and taking advantage of the other.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "we could have had it all" and "rolling in the deep," which represents the good things that the two people could have had in their relationship, but ultimately failed to achieve due to betrayal and deception. The singer implies that she will make the other person's life miserable, and they will regret ever meeting her. The lyrics also delve into the emotional scars caused by heartbreak, with the singer becoming breathless because of past emotional pain.
In the concluding verse, the singer calls for redemption and for the other person to pay her back for what they have done. The metaphor of turning sorrow into treasured gold implies that the pain caused by heartbreak can be transformed into something valuable and positive.
